Does anybody here know the actual legal current position regarding ownership of Tattersall road. My understanding is it is probably owned by a malkinson family member? I don't understand how this came about. When Sotnick attempted his dishonourable land grab his first move was to take fc bostons assets in order to finance the boardsides fantasy? Fc would then play at cuckoo meadow .... come on could u script this?? The point being fc were set up in 1966/7 by disgruntled pool playing bufc diehards after malkinson mothballed BUFC & York St lay idle as a Sunday morning pub team carried on as BUFC. I think after a couple of years malkinson financed us again & we may have got back in one of the southern or Midland leagues. So who owns tattershal road??
Chestnuts
Thanks YC, I think u r right. So thinking about the new stadium & the financing of it the Chestnuts are not in a bad position at all. Everything is negotiated with the Malkies re York St ...end of lease etc. Tattersall road is part of that particular legal contract! Now then 80-100 flats on York St & car park; 100+ luxury homes on tattershal road, you can see what Sotnick was after (Evans & his brother were in on it 2). Just as well the Chestnuts managed to bag it then! Recent investment on the pitch reflects their genuine care for BUFC. But how did the Malkies get tattershal road off the 6 BUFC diehards who formed FC Boston in 1966 ?
I just remembered something from a while back concerning the lease on Tattersall road being renewed, and the chestnuts being involved.
I have know idea how it was purchased by them, perhaps when they bought BUFC they also acquired Lava flow, the company that was set up by Sotnick and co.
I am sure someone could shed some more light on the situation.
